Treading upon the olive lands, Rezara could not help but feel the tense atmosphere among the locals. After the recent events in the kingdom, it seemed no one could sleep peacefully anymore. But was it only the impending civil war that was the matter? It seemed that Olivus, too, had been struck by misfortune, and when, instead of the lord, Lady Moon Shadow came out to greet the envoy from Sordgard, Rezara's suspicion only grew.
– Lady Rezara Sandroge welcomes Lady Alsira Vecchi d'Arcréde, – the envoy placed her hand on her chest. – Sordgard sends its greetings to Olivus. Our beloved Lord Transcend fell in battle against the monsters of regret, but his heir, Lady Adata, remembers the former friendship with the neighboring regions of Tezoth. And, speaking of lords... Forgive my impertinence, Lady Alsira, but how is Lady Ciel's health? I do not see her, and in light of recent events, I fear the worst...
By recent events, Rezara meant the chaos that had taken hold of the kingdom. Of the assassination attempt, alas, she knew nothing.
— My Lady Crimson Blade, I am delighted to see you in good health. — Alsira bowed her head. — Allow me, on our behalf, to express condolences for the tragic fate of Lord Transcend. I confess, in recent weeks the winds have carried the most contradictory rumors, but now I observe that there was no substantial reason for them. A united Sordgard allows regions like ours to keep peace at night. I hope that the words of our reciprocal friendly wishes will reach your Bright Lady.
After a brief pause, she answers Rezara's question: — Her Goodheartedness is unwell, but there is no need for excessive worry. We are all awaiting her swift return in these days of uncertainty. Rest assured, anything you wish in Her absence you may share with me.
